7 6. Functions and Operations 6.1. Input/Output of HD/VD Signal Input of External HD/VD Signal As factory setting the camera can be synchronized by external HD/VD signals. The signal level must be 4.0V p-p +/- 2.0V at the input with the 75 Ohm termination ON. To change to non-terminated input, see instructions in 7. Mode Setting. If no ext. HD is connected, the camera will switch to the internal X-tal controlled HD. If no ext. VD is connected, the camera will continue with its internal VD Output of Internal HD/VD Signal The internal HD/VD output is 4.0V p-p from a 75 Ohm source. To select this mode, see instructions in 7. Mode Setting Normal Shutter Mode When trigger select SW1-4 is OFF, the camera is in normal mode. The SW1-1, SW1-2 and SW1-3 are for selecting the shutter speed. The range is from OFF to 1/10,000 second in 8 steps. The camera is running continuously with an exposure as the selected shutter time. The shutter time setting is shown in Table for Shutter Time External Trigger Mode External trigger mode of CV-M50 allows 4 different driving modes, as follow. 1 Edge pre-select mode. (Asynchronous reset and exposure start by an ext. trigger) 2 Pulse width control mode. (Exposure control by the low period of the ext. trigger) 3 Start/Stop trigger mode. (Exposure start by the ext. trigger and end by the ext. VD signal) 4 Long time exposure mode. (Exposure control by the interval of the ext. VD signal) The trigger input is AC coupled, so there is a maximum pulse width for the trigger pulse about 60 msec. The signal level must be 4.0V p-p +/- 2.0V on the input with the 75 Ohm termination ON. To change to non-terminated input, see instructions in 7. Mode Setting. The following describes the details of each trigger mode Edge Pre-select Mode The edge pre-select mode operation will only work in non-interlaced and field accumulation mode. The CV-M50 starts the exposure (= accumulation of photoelectric charge) at the first HD pulse after the falling edge of the ext. trigger pulse. The exposure ends after the time set by the 3 shutter switches SW1-1 to SW1-3. The range is 8 steps from OFF (1/60 or 1/50) to 1/10,000 second. In this mode, the EEN (Exposure ENable) pulse and WEN (Write ENable) pulses are generated and output from the camera. The EEN pulse indicates the exposure time and can be used to control the illumination such as strobe light. The EEN pulse is output from pin 2 of the 6-pin multi connector. The signal level is 4.0 Vp-p from a 75 Ohm source. The WEN pulse indicates the time period of the effective video signal output, and is useful for the timing and interfacing of external devices such as frame grabbers. The WEN pulse is output from pin 6 of the 6- pin multi connector. The signal level is 4.0 Vp-p from a 75 Ohm source. The video must be read out before a new trigger can be applied. The interval between trigger pulses must be longer than the time for 1 field + the shutter time. It is the limit for the field rate

8 To use this mode Set: SW1-4 to ON for ext. trigger shutter SW1-5 to OFF for field accumulation SW1-6 to ON for non-interlaced SW1-1,2 and 3 to shutter speed Input: Ext. trigger to pin 5 on 6 pin multi connector. Ext. HD to pin 6 on 12-pin multi connector. (If used). 75 Ohm termination is done with SW2-1 (HD) and SW2-2 (ext.trigger) on PK8057 board. Refer to Timing Chart and Cautions below. Detailed switch and jumper setting is described in 7. Mode Setting. For connections see 5. Pin Assignment. Cautions in the Edge Pre-select Mode. 1. Edge pre-select mode is effective only in non-interlaced, field accumulation mode. 2. The exposure start may delay up to 1H max., when the falling edge of ext. trigger pulse is not synchronized with the falling edge of ext. HD signal. To avoid this 1H delay and jitter, the falling edge of the trigger pulse should be synchronized with the HD pulse as shown below. It can be the ext. HD input or the Internal HD output. 3. The ext. trigger input is 75 Ohm terminated as factory setting. (R127 short and SW2-2 ON). The voltage level of the ext. trigger has to be 4.0 Vp-p ± 2.0 V. The duration should be more than 1 H negative going. >64 µsec. and < 60 msec. The input is AC coupled. 4. If the ext. trigger input and ext. HD input are from a source with TTL level, set SW2-1 and SW2-2 OFF for non-terminated. SW2-1 for HD signal, SW2-2 for ext. trigger pulse. See 7.2 SW2 on PK8057 Board.

The exposure is controlled by the low period of the ext. trigger pulse. The CV-M50 starts the exposure at the first HD pulse after the falling edge of the ext. trigger pulse. The exposure ends at the first HD pulse after the rising edge of the ext. trigger. The Shutter can be controlled to be within the range from >1H (>64 usec.) to <60 msec. The AC coupling causes the upper limit. EEN (Exposure ENable) pulse and WEN (Write ENable) pulses are generated and output from the camera. The EEN pulse indicates the exposure time. The EEN pulse is output from pin 2 of the 6-pin multi connector. The signal level is 4.0 Vp-p from a 75 Ohm source. The WEN pulse indicates the time period of the effective video signal output and is useful for the timing and interfacing of external devices such as frame grabbers. The WEN pulse is output from pin 6 of the 6- pin multi connector. The signal level is 4.0 Vp-p from a 75 Ohm source The video must be read out before a new trigger can be applied. The interval between trigger pulses must be longer than the time for 1 field + the shutter time. It is the limit for the field rate. To use this mode Set: SW1-1, 2 and 3 to OFF SW1-4 to ON for ext. trigger shutter SW1-5 to OFF for field accumulation SW1-6 to ON for non-interlaced JP12 on PK8057 to OPEN Input: Ext. trigger to pin 5 on 6-pin multi connector. Ext. HD to pin 6 on 12-pin multi connector. (If used). 75 Ohm termination is done with SW2-1 (HD) and SW2-2 (ext.trigger) on PK8057 board. Refer to Timing Chart and Cautions on next page. Detailed switch and jumper setting is described in 7. Mode Setting. For connections see 5. Pin Assignment

10 Cautions in the Pulse Width Control Mode. 1. Pulse width control mode is effective only in non-interlaced field accumulation mode. 2. The exposure start may be delayed up to 1H max., when the falling edge of ext. trigger pulse is not synchronized with the falling edge of ext. HD signal. To avoid this 1H jitter and delay, the falling edge of the ext. trigger pulse should be synchronized within 4.4 usec. to the HD pulse. It can be the ext. HD in or the Internal HD out. See cautions in Edge Pre-select Mode page The ext. trigger input is 75 Ohm terminated as factory setting. (R127 short and SW2-2 on). The voltage level of the ext. trigger has to be 4.0 Vp-p ± 2.0 V. The duration should be more than 1 H negative going. >64 µsec. and < 60 msec. The input is AC coupled. 4. If the ext. trigger input and ext. HD input are from a source with TTL level, set SW2-1 and SW2-2 OFF for non-terminated. SW2-1 for HD signal, SW2-2 for ext. trigger pulse. See 7.2 SW2 on PK8057 Board.

11 Start/Stop Trigger Mode The Start /Stop trigger will work in 3 modes: 1. Interlaced with frame accumulation. 2. Interlaced with field accumulation. 3. Non-interlaced with field accumulation. The exposure time is controlled by the interval between the ext. trigger pulse and the ext. VD signal. The exposure starts at the first HD pulse after the falling edge of the ext. trigger, and stops at the rising edge of the VD pulse. The range can be within 1/77 to 1/10,000 sec. The Start/Stop mode is a continuous mode where the VD signal must be given continuously. It is not possible to input ext. VD randomly. For the interlaced modes 2 ext. trigger pulses should be applied for each frame. It is one for each field. In this way it is possible to have different exposure time for the 2 fields within an interlaced frame. The difference between interlaced frame accumulation or field accumulation can be explained as follow. Both modes have 2 fields output in an interlaced frame. With frame accumulation the contents in the ODD and EVEN sync. fields will come from sensing field 1 and 2 on the CCD sensor. With field accumulation both ODD and EVEN sync. field will contain the signal from sensing field 1 and 2 added together. Non-interlaced with field accumulation needs only 1 trigger pulse for each field. To use this mode Set: SW1-1,2 and 3 to ON for 1/10,000 sec. SW1-4 to OFF for normal shutter. SW1-5 to ON for frame accumulation or OFF for field accumulation. SW1-6 to OFF for 2:1 interlaced or ON for non-interlaced. Jumper JP R127 on the PK8054 board OPEN Jumper JP8, JP9, JP10 on PK8057 to SHORT Jumper JP7 on PK8057 to OPEN Input: Ext. trigger to pin 5 on 6 pin multi connector. (Can not be 75 Ohm terminated.) Ext. VD to pin 7 on 12 pin multi connector. Ext. HD to pin 6 on 12 pin multi connector. (If used). HD/VD 75 Ohm termination is done with SW2-1 and SW2-2 on PK8057 board. Refer to Timing Chart and Cautions on next page. Detailed switch and jumper setting is described in 7. Mode Setting. For connections see 5. Pin Assignment

12 Cautions in the Start/Stop Trigger Mode. 1. The input of ext. VD signal must be given continuously to synchronize with int. VD signal. It is not possible to input ext. VD signal randomly. 2. The exposure start may delay up to 1H max., when the falling edge of ext. trigger pulse is not synchronized with the falling edge of ext. HD signal. To avoid this 1H jitter and delay, the falling edge of the ext. trigger pulse should be synchronized within 4.4 usec. to the HD pulse. It can be the ext. HD input or the internal HD output. Shown under cautions in Edge Pre-select Mode page In this mode, the ext. trigger has to be TTL level (2.0 to 5.0 V). It cannot be 75 Ohm terminated. The duration should be more than 1 H negative going. >64 µsec. and < 1 msec. The input is AC coupled. 4. If the ext. VD input and ext. HD input are from a source with TTL level, set SW2-1 and SW2-2 on PK8057 board OFF for non-terminated. SW2-1 for ext. HD signal, SW2-2 for ext. VD signal. See 7.2 SW2 on PK8057 Board. 5. Each scanning mode requires the following number of external trigger pulses: - 2:1 interlaced: 2 external trigger pulses per frame - Non-interlaced: 1 external trigger pulse per field a) Interlaced mode (Frame accumulation mode) Ext.Trg. Ext. VD Exposure time Video 1 2 t1 t1 b) 2:1 Interlaced mode (Field accumulation mode) Ext.Trg. Ext. VD Exposure time Video 1 2 c) Non-interlace moded (Field accumulation mode) Ext.Trg. Ext. VD 1 Exposure time Video

13 Long Time Exposure Mode The Long time exposure will work in 3 modes: 1. Interlaced with field accumulation. 2. Interlaced with frame accumulation. 3. Non-interlaced with field accumulation. The exposure time is the interval between 2 ext. VD pulses sent to the camera VD input. Each ext. VD pulse will reset and restart the internal VD in the camera as for ext. HD/VD input. So the camera is synchronized to the external HD/VD supply after each VD input. An exposure starts after input of an external VD pulse, and ends after the next input of ext. VD, which again starts a new exposure. The long time exposure is a continuous process where each external VD will synchronize the camera, stop an exposure, start a new exposure and read out the previous accumulated signal as interlaced or non-interlaced fields. The exposure control can be done by feeding every N th VD pulse from the external HD/VD supply to the camera. N is the wanted exposure time in number of fields. This is typically done in the frame grabber PC. The range for long time exposure is from 1 V (a single field) to. However the dark current signal will increase by longer time, so >2 seconds are not recommended at normal ambient temperature. To use this mode: Set: SW1-1, 2 and 3 to OFF SW1-4 to OFF for normal shutter. SW1-5 to ON for frame accumulation or OFF for field accumulation. SW1-6 to OFF for 2:1 interlaced or ON for non-interlaced. Jumper JP6 on PK8057 to CLOSE Input: Ext. VD pulses with the exposure interval to pin 7 on 12 pin multi connector. Ext. HD to pin 6 on 12 pin multi connector. 75 Ohm termination is done with SW2-1 and SW2-2 on PK8057 board. The timing for the external VD interval has to be as follow. (V is the time for a single field) Interlaced with field accumulation. 1 V or more Interlaced with frame accumulation. 2 V or integral number of 2V Non-interlaced with field accumulation. 2 V or more Note:The external HD/VD sync. generator, which supply the ext. VD an HD signals should follow the scanning standard for the camera setting. EIA CCIR Interlaced and field accumulation. 1 V = H 1 V = H Interlaced and frame accumulation. 2 V = H 2 V = H Non-interlaced and field accumulation. 2 V = H 2 V = H Refer to Timing Chart and Cautions on next page. Detailed switch and jumper setting is described in 7. Mode Setting. For connections see 5. Pin Assignment

14 Cautions in the Long Time Exposure Mode. 1. Theoretical exposure time is as follows. EIA: 1/30 sec. to. CCIR: 1/25 sec. to. 2. It is recommended not to use exposure >2 sec. since visible dark-current noise may occur. 3. Ext. HD signal (4.0 Vp-p ± 2.0V at 75 Ohm terminated) has to be input continuously The falling edge of Int. HD signal and Ext. VD signal are phase-synchronized. 4. Timing of ext. VD signal in each accumulation mode has to be set, as described before. a) 2:1 Interlaced mode (Field accumulation mode) b) 2:1 Interlaced mode (Frame accumulation mode) c) Non interlaced mode (Field accumulation mode)
